Nothing wrong with "glass-is-half-empty" negative posters... and there's nothing wrong with "glass-is-half-full" optimistic posters, either. And there's nothing wrong with people calling them too negative or too positive.

What bothers me is when someone is just plain silly with what they're saying. Like saying that our 2nd and 3rd string guys not playing well in the first preseason game means that our season is in serious trouble.

That is just crazy. It's so far off base that it doesn't even make sense... and when something like that just doesn't make sense, then you have to wonder if it isn't a Philly or Washington fan posing as a Dallas fan just to cause dissent.

And there IS something wrong with that. You almost have to hope for their sake that they are a rival fan just trying to cause problems... because if they're really a Cowboy fan and they actually have those extremely negative views of everything... then they're bound to be miserable and ought to go watch basket-weaving.

With as many people as there are on this forum... there is going to be fans calling each other out over differing opinions. That's OK too and frankly, doesn't deserve to have YOU call them out for that.

1.the marketplace or public square of an ancient Roman city, the center of judicial and business affairs and a place of assembly for the people.
2.a court or tribunal: the forum of public opinion.
3.an assembly, meeting place, television program, etc., for the discussion of questions of public interest.
4.the Forum, the forum in the ancient city of Rome.

So, what's wrong with "negative" posters or "homers"?
What's up with all the criticism about other members?

Isn't that the point?

Sometimes a "forum" is a discussion about ideas that are common and diverging on a particular subject and sometime it's MontyPythonesque. This particular suject has gone in the latter direction.. :D

really? interesting. I always call it going off on a tangent...then again, i've seen like 5 minutes of Monty Python, so that reference probably went over my head.
